Palermo Walking Tour [Sicily]

Enjoy your visit of Palermo today on our private guided half day walking tour.  You’ll see all the most important sites in the heart of Palermo’s historical center.  Such as the Quattro Canti (Four Corners), a famous crossroads with fine examples of 17th century Spanish Baroque architecture and lovely fountains. Stroll to the Piazza Pretoria with its beautiful 16th century Florentine fountain and the City Hall, dating to 1463.

Then visit a 12th century Greek Orthodox church, La Martorana, with its intricate Norman mosaics. The Arab-Norman style church, San Cataldo, is distinguished by three small red domes. The city’s cathedral or Duomo, a fusion of Gothic, Arabic and Baroque architecture, was once a mosque – there is a verse of the Koran inscribed on one of its columns.
